1. How loud are you playing and how much gain do you use?
2. Does it squeel always constantly, or only if you're not muting the strings?

If it always squeels, it's probably the bridge pickup that is microphonic. You can have it wax potted, which will solve your problem, or just throw in a new pickup of own choice.
